It's only Cream of tomato, but I like it.

Alright then. For only about the second time I've diverged from the CB medicine to try the new soup on the block ™.

The "Cream of Tomato" effort today is OK. It's refreshing and has actual bits of Tomato in it, but it's lacking the depth of the CB. This soup tastes like a tricked out cup-a-soup, only without the croutons. It could do with a tube of Tomato paste or some ketchup to give it a richer palatableness, maybe a little seasoning wouldn't go a miss.

It's flattness does perk up the crisp combination though.
Dipping choice for today: Tbone Steak by Roysters.



And finally...
Homer: Lisa, would you like a donut?
Lisa: No thanks. Do you have any fruit?
Homer: This has purple in it. Purple is a fruit.

Happieness in Every Sip.™

A work colleague returned from honeymoon in Florida and he brought me back some crisps, he knows me well.

Considering that i normally have super flavoury 'potato chips' (as they call them across the water), Classic (ready salted to you English readers) seems a little standard, but this simply gives the CB a chance to shine and not have to compete with the other full on flavours, giving me a truer reflection of the taste. That said, it's probably not a repeat perscription.

Soup is ok today, just standard really. Quite tomatoey...

How these crisps survived a trip across the atlantic ocean, in a pressurised aeroplane I don't know. I once attempted to cart several large bags of crisps to Egypt, they where open and smashed to pieces when i unpacked. Although i later considered that it might have been one of the baggage handlers kicking it, as it was a bag with a liverpool address, with a LFC lable on it, travelling from Manchester...
